WindDown Bedtime Ritual
Read full descriptionHide full description
WindDown is a bedtime routine you actually follow. Build a wind-down checklist with real times, get gentle screens-off and lights-down nudges, rate your sleep in the morning, and watch WindDown tie the two together: the nights you follow your routine against the nights you skip it. A ROUTINE WITH TIMES, NOT JUST A LIST Start from a built-in routine (Wind-down basics, Screen-free evening, Deep rest) or build your own from a library of 18 real steps, each with a reason and a suggested time. WindDown clocks every step off your bedtime, so screens off at 10:15, lights down at 10:20, a few pages at 10:40. Reorder, edit, or write your own. SCREENS-OFF AND LIGHTS-DOWN REMINDERS Flag any step as a reminder and WindDown nudges you at its time, every evening. The screens-off and lights-down steps come ready to remind, because those are the two that decide the night. A MORNING CHECK-IN THAT ADDS UP Rate how you slept, log the hours, add a note. It takes ten seconds and it is the other half of the story. SEE HOW YOUR ROUTINE SHAPES YOUR SLEEP This is the part a notes app cannot do. WindDown compares the nights you followed your routine against the nights you did not, and tells you the difference: "Follow the routine and you rate sleep 3.8, versus 2.8 on off nights." It reads the link between routine adherence and sleep quality from your own nights, and charts both over the last three weeks. STREAKS WITH GRACE NIGHTS Keep a streak going for following your wind-down, with room to breathe: a couple of off nights spend a grace night before the streak resets, so one late evening does not undo a month. A WEEKLY SLEEP REPORT Every week rolls up into a report: nights logged, average quality, average adherence, time asleep, your best night, and a night-by-night breakdown. Export it as a clean PDF whenever you want it, or keep it in your archive. ON EVERY SCREEN YOU OWN WindDown syncs across iPhone, iPad, and Mac with iCloud. No account, no tracking. Everything lives on your device and in your private iCloud. FREE VS PRO Free includes one routine and 14 nights of history with every tool: the timed checklist, reminders, the morning check-in, the adherence-vs-quality insight, and streaks. WindDown Pro unlocks unlimited night history, extra routines, and the weekly PDF report. WindDown is a wellness and routine tool for your own records, not medical advice. If sleep problems last, talk to a healthcare professional. SUBSCRIPTION DETAILS WindDown Pro is available as a monthly subscription ($2.99 USD per month) or a yearly subscription ($19.99 USD per year); a one-time Lifetime unlock ($49.99 USD) is also offered.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Lumos Glasses at none against WindDown Bedtime Ritual's 3. Lumos Glasses also leads on iOS requirement (14.0 vs 18.0). WindDown Bedtime Ritual's advantage is update cadence (fortnightly vs every 6 weeks). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
